{"title":"Neil Welch","description":"\u003cp\u003eBorn in Staffordshire in 1972, Neil Welch is an acclaimed British Figurative bronze sculptor recognised for his expressive interpretation of the human form. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLargely self taught, Neil’s artistic journey began in childhood and was shaped further by a formative apprenticeship at the new Victoria Theatre as a stage and props designer. He later spent seven years as an in house sculptor for Wedgwood, refining the craftsmanship and technical precision that define his work today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor over three decades, Neil has created sculptures celebrated for their fluid movement, anatomical understanding and serene, almost ethereal presence. His figures possess a quiet strength, contemporary in execution yet timeless in spirit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNeil has received numerous prestigious commissions, including Royal portraits for Royal Doulton, a large scale Duke of Wellington on horseback marking the anniversary of the battle of Waterloo, and sculptural works for Downton Abbey. Hiswork is held in permanent display at the Wedgwood Museum and collected internationally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach Sculpture is personally overseen by Neil from concept through to final patination, working closely with the foundry to achieve exceptional finishes. His limited edition bronzes are highly sought after and produced in strictly limited numbers. \u003cbr\u003eThis new collection presents a rare opportunity to acquire work directly connected to the artists practice.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"oberon-titania","title":"Oberon \u0026 Titania","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"135\" data-end=\"197\"\u003eArtist: Neil Welch\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"135\" data-end=\"197\"\u003eInspired by the enchanted world of Shakespeare’s “A Midsummer Nights Dream”, Oberon \u0026amp; Titania captures the tension and tenderness between the King \u0026amp; Queen of the Fairies.
